We are desperately trying to provide around 200 primary school children with new school shoes for the winter. We operate in the highlands of Lesotho where these children face extremely cold winters and either have no shoes or woefully inadequate shoes.

Many teenage girls are becoming mothers before they’ve had the chance to finish school or build a future. Deep poverty leaves families struggling, and young girls often feel they have no choice but to prioritise survival over education. Without support, these girls face isolation, lost opportunities and a cycle of hardship that continues into the next generation. Mthunzi Foundation is seeking baby bib donations as part of a broader effort to support teenage mothers with education, emotional care and skills training. With practical help and community support, these young women can rebuild confidence, continue learning and create brighter futures for themselves and their children.

Life in Chifusa village is especially challenging for young girls who find themselves becoming mothers far too soon. With limited income and few opportunities, many are unable to continue their education and must focus entirely on caring for their babies. The pressure of poverty often leaves them without even the most basic household essentials. Bath towels of any colour or size are urgently needed to support these young mothers and their children. Something so simple can help restore comfort, hygiene and a sense of dignity in daily life. Mthunzi Foundation is working alongside these teenage mothers by providing educational support, emotional guidance and practical skills training. With the right help and essential items, these young women can begin rebuilding their futures and creating safer, more hopeful lives for their families.

Young teenage mothers in Chifusa are working hard to care for their babies while trying to continue their education and build independent futures. Many are determined to return to learning or develop new skills, but they face daily challenges meeting even the most basic needs for their children.

Something so simple can ease stress and provide practical support during a very demanding stage of life. Mthunzi Foundation, supported by a dedicated team of volunteer teachers, health professionals and social workers, walks alongside these courageous young women. By combining essential items with education, emotional guidance and skills training, the Foundation is helping teenage mothers create stronger, more hopeful futures for themselves and their children.
